Re: [LegacyUG] STILL - Trying to create a Relationship Chart in Excel

[Brian Kelly]

The only options for a Relationship chart (printed from the relationship 
calculator) is text or pdf so this cannot be created as a .csv file. 
When I opened this in excel I was first lead through a series of excel 
screens as it tried to decide how the text was divided into cells. In 
the end though I did see the chart showing the relationship.


When I created a relationship report Reports > Other Reports > 
Relationship Report there was a csv option.


Opening the Relationships.csv file in Excel 2007 worked perfectly. There 
were two columns, Name and Relationship.

Re: [LegacyUG] Fwd: Record of Funeral

[Brian Kelly]

I would ask myself where this funeral record originated or where it was 
found? Was it published in a newspaper? Was it included in a book? if so 
then I would use one of the book or newspaper templates.


If it was included on a website collection then the questions would be 
what is the website about, a private family history related one or 
public general database. For a family related one I would probably use a 
generic internet template. For a general database then the type/source 
of the collection may lead you to a template. For example if the 
collection was taken from newspapers the newspapers online template 
would probably apply.

Using Legacy 9, and I have found a very detailed Record of Funeral. How 
can I enter this into Legacy 9? It's an event-related record; however, 
there is no existing record type for this. I could create a new record 
type, but then how can this be included in a gedcom file for use with my 
TNG website?


Thanks for any suggestions/solutions!

Hi Jean,

Do you mean the people in your Legacy database buried in a particular cemetery?

Some cemeteries are well documented on Find A Grave.
The county clerk in my county is wonderful about sharing information about a 
cemetery.
Genealogytrails.com will often have cemeteries.

Re: [LegacyUG] Fwd: Record of Funeral

[Cathy Pinner]

Gene,

You can add whatever Events you like in Legacy.
I haven't used TNG but I understand that there is a section there where 
you can map Legacy Custom Events to something in TNG.


Sourcing your event is another issue and the source will go with the event.

If you're asking what SourceWriter Template to use to source what you've 
found that depends on where you found it. Could be a Newspaper source or 
Cemetery source or Internet database or an Artifact source as this is 
something found amongst family papers.
But you maybe stay with Basic sources since in a Gedcom all sources are 
converted to Basic style anyway.

Re: [LegacyUG] STILL - Trying to create a Relationship Chart in Excel

[Cathy Pinner]

Valerie,

Why do you think you can open a Relationship Chart in Excel? What format 
is the chart?


Do you mean you've saved a Relationship Report to csv?

To open a csv file in Excel, if Excel has all its defaults, you can just 
double click on the file. Otherwise when in Excel you have to go to File 
- Open and then change the type of file to open so that csv files appear 
in the list when you've navigated to the right folder.

Re: [LegacyUG] csv FILE

Yes I did that thanks. I also read somewhere to give the second file 3000 rins 
so you know which is old and which is new.

Be sure to do the import of the GED file into a new blank family file or it 
will be merged with your existing file families.

I do not think that you can download a csv file from Ancestry. Just 
giving a file a name like filename.csv does not change the content. if 
you downloaded a file from Ancestry it is probably a GEDCOM file which 
is the standard format for genealogical files.

Rename the file to filename.ged
Open Legacy and use file > Import > GEDCOM file
when you have finished the import from filename.ged
Go to View > Name List
Click Options > Print
Now you will be able to define up to three rows of data you can include 
for each person.
Select CSV file in the lower right
The print box in the upper right will change to Create
Click create
In the dialog box select the folder where you want to save the file and 
assign a file name
Click save
Remember where you saved that file
Open Excel then open the file you exported from legacy.

Re: [LegacyUG] csv FILE

[Valerie Garton]

Been on the phone to Microsoft yesterday waiting for over 6.25 hours when
the phone rang out of batttery. Been on the phone again now for 37 minutes.
What I have done is: Open an excel file, select the file I want to open and
try to open this when the excel page then goes blue with no grid. Would it
be OK for me to ring you please ?
